Spitzer has been a scumbag from day one. When he announced that he was running for Governor, it sent shivers down my spine. Amazingly, some here on Free Republic did not share my concerns. I tend to think that I was correct in my observations.

He abused his power then and will continue to do so until he is stopped. Sooner rather than later.

With reason.

It is apparent that Spitzer craves power for one reason: to punish his "enemies".

And a paranoid is not a pauper when it comes to "enemies"...

I can second you.

Spitzer showed himself fully as a power-hungry socialist when he went after Grasso, for instance. It was not the principle of quality under the law --- it was a class struggle of the proletariat against the rich. He merely sought of having greater means at his disposal by becoming a governor.

I don't know that your FR opponents told you, but there is a huge anti-corporate (anti-capitalist) sentiment here, and those poster may have cheered Spitzer for his war against capitalism.
